I'm a bit confused; I thought MTAR was more about standardized procedures. Is that what option C is referring to?

I remember a practice question about tax reserves, and I think it was more about policy-related aspects. Could it be option B?

I'm a bit confused by the wording here. What's the difference between "MTAR" and "actuarial liabilities"? I'll need to review my notes to make sure I understand the distinction.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Is the top line net income, since that's the final bottom-line figure? Or is it revenue, since that's the starting point? I'll have to review my notes to be sure.
